I am the magic 8 ball

[Sundae]

Just to clarify, Magic 8 ball, we say the doctors as shorthand for The Doctors' Surgery - a place where a number of GPs practice. Seven in my case. This concentration means you can get an appointment same-day as long as you don't need to see a specific GP.

It works wonderfully. Nerrrrrrrr.

And the only way I'd catch an STD right now is... well - there isn't any way. I lose faith with your powers

This is a two part question:

Magic 8 ball- Will I have a job soon that won't begin with enthusiasm, only to end in doom and dread at the thought of showing up for it? Will I be paid fairly?

The Magic 8 Ball thinks you should start filling out applications at Starbucks. You won't love it, but you also won't want to gnaw your fingers down to greasy nubbins every time you clock in. It won't make you rich, but if you mind your pennies, it will keep you from going flat broke.

Everybody wins! Now go fetch the magic 8 ball a grande drip in a venti cup, with a double add-shot and a slice of warm condescension. And no, I do NOT tip my barista.

Umm. I am here to point out the prophetic nature of the magic eight ball. I might be serving coffee soon. And burritos. Would you like red or green with that magic eight ball, or christmas style? (red and green)

Unfortunately I might be doomed if no one calls soon, and this coffee shop actually does hire me like they are suggesting. Fu*@!!

PETA uses "Ethical" in two different ways. When referring to the actions of medical researchers, meat industry, and pet owners, they use a Natural Law standard which applies value to all beings capable of sentience, and no beneficial outcome can triumph that inherent value.

For their own actions, however, they use the a utilitarian standard; the ends justify the means, and a good enough ends justifies any means.

They have this double standard in common with all fundamentalists and ideologues.

The judgments of TM8B are in no way compromised by the use of mind-altering drugs, and I resent the insinuation otherwise, brah.

Upon McCains death (early 2010), Palin will be the female president sworn in. She will neglect the duties of the presidency, however, to focus on a reading tour of her poetry:

“You Can’t Blink”

You can’t blink.
You have to be wired
In a way of being
So committed to the mission,

The mission that we’re on,
Reform of this country,
And victory in the war,
You can’t blink.

So I didn’t blink.
